You And I

Washed Out - You and I (Featuring Caroline Polachek)

This is just amazing. The 80's-synth chillwave beats of Washed Out are perfectly complemented by the soft beauty of Polachek's voice. It's kind of shocking that this collaboration didn't happen sooner. While her song with Flosstradamus, "Big Bills," featured her in a more central and emotive role, her vocals on "You and I" are basically too good to not be singing verses. For being in a band with only one album, she's been on some really great tracks; don't forget TV on The Radio employed her once on 2008's Dear Science.

"You and I" is Washed Out, just ten times better than what Washed Out was before.
